my 1st game within my 2nd game #gamedev #indiedev #unity3D

@thomasbrushdev so good

Sound on. Atmos Games (my lil indie studio) puts a premium on mood and atmosphere above everything else. If the vibe isn't perfect, the game doesn't get released. This game is called Twisted Tower. Coming out soon maybe maybe not.

note to self.. separating large meshes, creating a 2nd UV channel, and lightmap packing are very important for proper baking. #unity

@thomasbrushdev fears to fathom

What indie games would you rate an 8/10? GO!

@thomasbrushdev a technical vid of everything you learned from TT about optimization would be incredible 🙏

The optimization phase of game development involves making tiny tweaks you suspect are causing major hiccups in the game, and then staring at this for 8 hours a day over and over and scrolling social media on your phone:

@HollowPoiint new 616 game

Day 1 with no more Resident Evil Requiem. This sucks.

@fffadedev Nice. Do you bake lights at all or will they all be real-time? I have a power outage scene in my game and trying to determine how to handle in a performant manner.

Lights out 🫰💡#indiedev #horrorgame

@vivigamedev looks awesome

Cold Rails demo out now on itch! 🍸

@thomasbrushdev the overhead track is a cool addition

Some parts of Twisted Tower look so cool!

@Phantom_TheGame unity lighting

Things that are harder in game dev than most people think: • Ladders • Doors • Moving platforms • Crouching • Settings screens • Marketing • Actually finishing the ga

@theRayll @guycalledfrank Thanks for the insight. Lookin forward to Scratch Creek!

@binghamDEV @guycalledfrank ive been putting up with unity baking for the longest time too but using bakery for the new ep :)

Bakery has been updated to support the new drivers! Please try updating via github/patcher. If no issues are reported within the next week, I'll update the Asset Store version. The new version should also bake faster (!)

@theRayll @guycalledfrank has bakery been used in all FTF games? unity's light baking system is driving me nuts.

@guycalledfrank my goat

@616_games do you bake your lighting?

@HorrorUntitled For sure, same man

@binghamDEV Thank you! And thank you for the tips! Lights can be a real pain in the ass for me lol

omfg, I figured out why I was getting shit results in my occlusion culling bake in level 8; my material render was set to "cutout" instead of "opaque" which was fucking it all up😩 left pic: material render cutout right pic: material render opaque learn something new everyday🙃

I heard you #gamedev #horror

It's Friday! What are you reading this weekend?

where are you #gamedev

@HorrorUntitled Awesome, keep it up

@binghamDEV Thank you dave! Yep! Wanted to reduce the amount of materials I had throughout the game so I've been cramming as many textures as I can into texture / trim sheets. It's been a huge endeavor, but I'm very happy with my progress so far!

nothin' much, just a few random shots from around the factory
